This international capital mobilization deal is the largest in VPBankS’s history, clearly illustrating the strong confidence of the international financial community in the company’s long-term development potential and sustainable business strategy.
The loan was coordinated by Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (SMBC) as the sole coordinator, along with the participation of reputable financial institutions, including Maybank, Cathay United Bank, and Standard Chartered Bank, in arranging, book-building, and syndicated lending. The involvement of these prominent financial institutions not only enhances the value of the transaction but also underscores VPBankS’s capability in connecting with and mobilizing international capital.
The deal also demonstrates VPBankS’s international credibility and trustworthiness, backed by its transparent corporate governance, robust financials, and agile adaptation to market fluctuations, despite being a relatively new player in the market.
“The success of this transaction clearly demonstrates that VPBankS is building solid trust with international investors through strong commitments to transparency, effective governance, and breakthrough business strategies,” emphasized Mr. Vu Huu Dien, Chairman of the Board of Directors and General Director of VPBankS. “In the context of a volatile global financial market, successfully raising a large amount of international capital lays a crucial foundation for VPBankS to continue asserting its pioneering role in the Vietnamese securities market.”
This syndicated loan will serve as a significant resource for VPBankS to boost its investment activities, enhance competitiveness, expand market share, and achieve sustainable growth in the coming years.
VPBankS will prioritize utilizing the raised capital to strengthen its financial capacity, diversify its investment portfolio, enhance securities brokerage, provide corporate financial advisory services, and develop digital financial products. These initiatives will ultimately contribute to enhancing customer experience and solidifying VPBankS’s leading position in Vietnam’s securities industry.

The success of this transaction also opens up opportunities for long-term strategic collaborations with international financial institutions, laying the groundwork for larger capital mobilization deals in the future and solidifying VPBankS’s position and growing influence in the global financial market.
VPBankS’s financial results for the first quarter of 2025 displayed impressive growth, with total assets surpassing VND 33,700 billion, an increase of over VND 7,000 billion compared to the beginning of the year. With equity capital close to VND 17,700 billion, VPBankS is among the securities companies with the strongest capital base in the market. These figures reflect the company’s robust financial health and sustainable profitability.
